Israel Independence Day at the J
Israel is 78! Let’s Celebrate Together!
As Yom Ha’atzmaut approaches, let’s come together as One Community for Israel. Let’s show our solidarity and consider all there is to celebrate for Israel’s 78th year of independence. Together we will explore the sights, sounds and tastes of Israel. This incredible program features Israeli music, crafts, and activities presented by the organizations in
our community.
J Gourmet and Café Dallas will provide delicious tastes of Israel. There are activities for children and adults. And for those who love to shop, our vendors have you covered with an amazing Israeli style Shuk.

TRAIN. PLAY. THE J WAY.
This is the largest recreational co-ed league in the area consisting of two 25-minute halves in the 8 v 8 formations. Three of the eight players on the field MUST be a female. Females’ goals count double and slide-tackling is not allowed. Teams are registered as one unit through a captain as the representative. This is an 8-game regular season, and all teams will make the playoffs. We will do our best to accommodate make-ups due to inclement weather. Please note dates may change due to weather. Please note your team name and shirt color in your registration.
